Post by: P.C. on Nov 02 07 07:53
OK.....this is easily Googlable (I just made that word up).....but [FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff"]no peeking....  [/FONT]K?

  Try to GUESS the 'late' celebrities who landed a place on the top ten incomes over the last year.

  Yes.....Elvis would be number one, earning $49 million.

Frank Sinatra?
 
 He certainly gets enough airplay with my parents and their friends.  Mind you, they're not buying any NEW Frank, just playing the same old.

I saw this on TV.  The one that I thought was interesting was Albert Einstein!

Frankie didn't make it Lil Me.

  Albert Einstein DID however.....and I was equally surprised JJ.

John Lennon is number two on the list Lil Me.

  *If Albert Einstein is a celebrity, so is Martin Luther.....who is not on the list.

WOW.....James Dean is actually number 13......so we'll say the top 13 instead of the top 10.

  Good job Lil Me !!!!

You know what Lise.....THAT is the best guess EVER.....and yet he is not on the list.  That just doesn't seem right.  There's got to be some technicality that has made Disney not make this list.  I wonder if it's because it's a corporation and not an individual ?  Now I'm curious.

The old pope
Diana

Good guesses SD.  Neither the Pope or Diana have earned their place on the list.

Meant to drop a clue or two last time I posted, but I had company at the door.

  There is an artist in the mix.....and a couple of writers. (but not writers of novels)
